I don't see anything obvious that should make this happen...
presumably xntpd uses adjtime or ntp_adjtime, and those use the 
normal superuser check routine ``suser'', which doesn't distinguish
between different security levels.

Randy, can you run ``truss ntpdate yada yada yada'' so we can
see which system call is returning EPERM?
